I have not been able to buy a strapless bra since high school. I was always avoiding anything that was strapless or off the shoulders. I ended up looking through bare necessities and found this bra decided to try it out. I was so surprised by how well this bra lifts without any straps I feel supported 100%. I am 36G in the US and usually stick to my comfort zone and get full coverage bras. Since I am only in my 20s I wanted to still look youthful and be able to buy dresses and shirts that I didn’t need straps for. I purchased the 34H and it works perfectly and I never have to pull on the bra to keep it from falling. I was so happy and recommended it to my sister that is a 42DDD and hers fits perfectly too! I decided to post a review because I wanted to help other people my situation figure out what’s the best bra for them.

I like a smooth cup & when my breasts are round, lifted, and front & center (without being "over the top.") This fits the bill! I can wear this everyday & don't know it's even on! I own ALL of the Curvy Couture Tulip Bras & love them all. But this is my go-to for everyday. Note that I did have to go up a size in this Smooth Tulip Bra. This is unusual for Curvy Couture. I'm generally a true 34H in this brand & all other American brands. In this Style, I went up to a 36H to get the cup capacity. This might just be me.
Many bras in my size are pointy, separate my breasts, or are minimizing (or terribly utilitarian looking.) Not this one! When I first got it, the side bones rubbed me a little bit. But after the 2nd wearing, I haven't noticed them at all.
I highly recommend it. The padding is thin/ light yet supportive & the straps stay on my shoulders! WooHoo!

This bra is fantastic. The push-up padding is definitely there, but it's not so much for cleavage as it is for comfort and support. Imagine your boobs are resting gently on little cushy pillows. :) My boobs don't even touch when I'm sitting up straight which means I can worry less about breaking out from boob sweat. The underwire seems to be ever so slightly padded, which surprisingly really does keep the underwire from pressing against your ribcage, giving it an almost bralette-like feel. The straps are padded as well so they don't dig in or hurt. They're also wide but definitely not ugly as sometimes wide straps can be and they work into the overall aesthetic of the bra quite well. Also the back isn't mesh which is really nice because I'm so tired of ordering mesh back bras because I just feel like they don't feel as nice and they are as strong and capable of support. So the fact that it's an actual strong comfortable fabric is really great. The bra itself, although it's quite simple, is actually not ugly and I feel pretty cute in it. It's well structured and by far the most true to size bra I've ever ordered (no gaping or spilling). As far as shape goes, it is slightly oval shaped as apposed to being perfectly round, but it does not give that pointy-boob look and it looks really nice under any given t-shirt so I don't mind it at all. The only downside is that it does eventually start to chafe under the armpits from the underwire if you're wearing it all day and you've been leaning over and standing back up multiple times a day or been like laying down in it or something. But on an average day it really doesn't bother me. I'm definitely going to buy the beige color as well. This bra has allowed me to finally feel like a grown woman who has her life together. :) So thank you Curvy Couture and Barenecessities! :D

This bra is really pretty and well made, and its seamless look is great under t-shirts. My only issues with this bra may very well be a size or body type issue, but the high sides tend to rub my armpits, and the overall look is a bit "uni-boob" (which is fine under t-shirts, but not necessarily all shirts - plus there's the sweat collection factor).
